Patient's question:
Tomorrow I will accompany my wife to have a transvaginal surgery for uterine fibroids. I want to understand if the transvaginal surgery for uterine fibroids is painful?Doctor's answer:
All vaginal myoma surgeries require anesthesia, so you will generally not feel any pain. The specifics depend on whether the vaginal myoma surgery involves removing the uterus or simply extracting the myoma. If the myoma is not large and does not interfere with menstrual flow or cause anemia, it is often sufficient to monitor it carefully without treatment. After menopause, the myoma may naturally shrink. It is important to have the myoma confirmed in size via ultrasound and to undergo follow-up gynecological ultrasound after the surgery. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
